We had 11 fertilize and five turn into perfect as good as it gets embies. We implanted one fresh and it took (LO is three months) and froze 4. We are 100 percent sure we are done having kids. But I think about them all the time. Wondering if they are boys or girls, what they look like, etc. I know our storage fee comes up for renewal in jan. I never thought I would be this sad to let them go but I know that they can do some good for science and hopefully aid a cure for some awful disease. It's a really tough emotional thing to decide what happens to those embies especially when u look at your baby's sweet face.

I am not able to have kids of my own, but I am now 10wks pregnant with donor embryos. I am so incredibly grateful that a family was willing to allow my husband and I be able to experience a pregnancy. And hopefully deliver a healthy baby. These embryos are 17 years ago too! Amazing! We even have more from the same family so we can try again and have biological siblings. So exciting for my family. It's such a wonderful wonderful gift they gave us, our parents, our grandparents, and our siblings. Everyone is so excited and amazed this is even possible.

Wow, that is super neat that u can have bio siblings. What a gift. I just couldnt donate mine, that would be my biological kids out there, I would be thinking of them constantly...its a complicated situation to be n.

I had 23 eggs retrieved. 19 fertilized. We did fresh 2 blasts at 5 days. Ended in chemical. Did FET with 4 embryos. Two good and two fair embryos. 60% chance of even getting preggy. 20% chance of twins and even less for more. Well I have 3 month old triplets. Lol with 6 embryos left. We are stumped what do with the rest. We started out already having 4 kids of my own and 2 more that my husband had. He nuts and wants to do another round in 2-3 years. Omg!! I dont think my body can do it again. 2 of my 4 are twins. So the likeliness of multiplies to me I feel is high. So don't think I feel I can do it again. But we are blessed with a big family.

We are in the same boat! We had two blasts transferred which resulted in a beautiful two month old little girl. We currently have three perfect embryos frozen. We talk about them daily, asking our little girl if they are girls or boys, does she miss them,lol, etc. I think we are going to try again but only thaw and transfer one at a time. We currently have 18,16, and newborn!

We did a full stim IVF cycle back in 2008 (both Hubby and I were 25). I had 27 follicles, 18 eggs retrieved, 11 fertilized. We ended up with 5x Blastocysts and 6x day 2 embryos. We had 1x fresh blastocyst transferred and ended up with DD. We froze the 10 remaining embryos. I too worried about what we'd do with the 10 left over as we only want 2 more children, not 10 more lol. It just so happens though that you might need to go through quite a few frozen embryos to get another baby. We have just gone through the FET stage to get baby number 2. I'm so grateful now that we had 10 frozen because our frozen transfers weren't as successful straight away as our first fresh transfer was. We had our first FET September of 1x blastocyst and it failed. October they thawed a 2 day embryo but it wasn't looking good so they thawed a second 2 day embryo and transferred it but that failed. November they transferred 1x 5 day blastocyst and that failed. Fourth time around I insisted on having two transferred so my doctor finally gave in (he only would transfer one at a time given my age- 28 and the fact we've been successful before) and transferred 2x 2 days embryos. I finally got my BFP 4th time lucky. I'm almost 6 weeks pregnant and waiting for my first ultrasound to see if it's one or two in there :) So, starting from 11 embies, and me worrying what I'm going to do with them all, we've now only got 4 frozen left. Depending whether this is a singleton pregnancy or not, we're going to try for baby number 3 in a couple of years and might have to go through the 4 remaining embryos left. I too couldn't donate them. Knowing I have my full biological children out there, I couldn't cope with that, but think its a wonderful blessing for the couples that can :) I honestly think I'd keep paying for them to be frozen until we make our minds up. I'm hoping we won't need to make that decision and we use them all to make our family complete. We might change our mind and want 4 or 5 children :)
